Get your MP to act against cuts

@Ranald ,While your point is valid and deserves respect, the big moral question in this debate is whether supporting Ukraine should be prioritised at the cost of stripping vulnerable citizens of their benefits.

Where is the link please that has a template to send our MP re these proposed Cuts?

@Catherine21

Sounds like it’s hit or miss with these MPs, judging by your experience and that of other members. Some of them seem more loyal to Starmer than to their own constituents. However,I’ll continue sending emails, at least for them to keep a log of how many they’ve received since this whole scaremongering act began under the current government.

Thanks for asking about me. As I mentioned in my other posts, I have some blood tests and steroid injections later this evening. Apart from that, it’s pretty much a rest day for me. How about you?

Hi Tori,

Just had an email from our MP he's made space in his diary to see you all in Parliament on 2nd April. He's a liberal, and so far they've been pretty keen to criticise Gov plans. He's a decent bloke so will hopefully be very receptive : )

This kind of rhetoric goes back to Cameron and Osborne. Long before Trump told them to spend more on defence. I don't accept that cutting benefits is a direct result of stopping Putin.

I summarised the green paper here.

I think you must have the same MP As me! Unless of course it's election time or a photo opportunity!

@Tori_Scope , I’ve just realised that the consultation document isn’t available in an accessible format, making it difficult to read. If this reform is truly meant for disabled and vulnerable people, shouldn’t accessibility be a priority? Has Scope raised this issue with the government? Thanks.
